We performed a comparison between ForgeRock and Oracle Identity Governance based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Identity Management (IM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The administrative features and SoD are valuable."
"Surveying is a valuable feature because it allows us to import data and see who has access to what data, for example."
"Omada's most valuable aspect is its usability."
"For me, the best feature of Omada Identity is its web interface because it's really easy for users to understand."
"The most relevant feature is Omada's reporting engine. Omada never 'forgets' and archives every process. All steps an admin, user, or manager has executed, are recorded in Omada."
"Omada's onboarding features reflect our processes for onboarding new employees well. That is the primary reason we use this solution. We use role-based access control. I'm not sure how much it has improved our security posture, but it's made managing identities more convenient."
"The thing that I find most valuable is that Omada consists of building blocks, which means that you can configure almost anything you want without using custom code, making it pretty easy to do. It's possible to connect to multiple target systems and to create one role that consists of different permissions in the different target systems. So one role in Omada can make sure that you have an account in three different systems."
"The Governance and self-service that can be set up so you can use them yourself to work in the system are the most valuable features. End users can be enabled to help themselves."
"ForgeRock has CIAM, which other products didn't have, and they have DevOps ready."
"Easy to customize and adaptable to any environment."
"The solution's most valuable feature is the authentication for the consumers. The integration with other third-party applications is excellent."
"Installation and configuration are pretty easy for ForgeRock OpenIDM."
"The support is good and prompt."
"The most valuable features of ForgeRock are social login and data protection."
"We used it to implement multi-factor authentication and to improve our security posture as well as reducing the potential for attacks."
"I like the intelligent authentication feature."
"The support service of Oracle is good. We use it a lot and their response is quick."
"This solution has improved the organization in several ways, including saving many help-desk password-reset calls, IT staff productivity, and quicker user on-boarding."
"It has a very good response time."
"Identifying connector framework for unifying provisioning capabilities from OIM."
"The most valuable features in Oracle Identity Governance are identity and access management."
"Understanding what a customer is using, what they are looking for, and allowing permissions is a challenge. We use the information we get in order to understand the behavior of the customer beyond the security and to understand what they have been doing in the last month. It's a nice way to understand what is attracting the customer and what they are clicking. That could be implemented by using this kind of application."
"I have found the OIM Connector framework, based on ICF, to be the most valuable feature."
"Good features are the RBAC and UI customization."
"Omada Identity has a steep learning curve."
"The user interface should have a more flexible design, where you can change it to your requirement."
"If you find an error and you need it fixed, you have to upgrade. It's not like they say, "Okay, we'll fix this problem for you." You have to upgrade. The last time we upgraded, because there was an error in a previous version, we had to pay 150,000 Danish Krone (about $24,000 at the time of this review) to upgrade our systems... That means that we have to pay to get errors fixed that Omada has made in programming the system. I hope they change this way of looking at things."
"Omada's reporting functionality is limited and could benefit from greater customization."
"The comprehensiveness of Omada's out-of-the-box connectors for the applications we use could be better. We are getting a new HR system called Cornerstone for which they do not have an out-of-the-box connector, so we have to take the REST connector and play around with it."
"When making a process, you should be able to use some coding to do some advanced calculations. The calculations you can currently do are too basic. I would also like some additional script features."
"They need to improve the cost for small companies."
"We are still on Omada on-prem, but I understand that when Omada is in the cloud, you cannot send an attachment via email. We have some emails with attachments for new employees because we have to explain to them how to register and do their multi-factor authentication. All that information is in the attachment. People have to do that before they are in our system. We cannot give them a link to our Intranet and SharePoint because they do not yet have access. They have to register before that, so I need to send the attachments, but this functionality is not there in the cloud."
"We're worried about the scaling. We're told it will be okay and there won't be issues, however, I'm not 100% convinced."
"I find that it's quite expensive for just an open-source system. Support is quite expensive."
"The solution's deployment should be made easier."
"The solution requires more simplified customization. However, part of the problem is my clients determining their own preferences. Technology can help and do many things, but you have to define your own policies to ensure that the solution or service works within those parameters. Helping customers understand their business and different processes is another issue not relating to the functionality of this solution."
"We raised tickets asking for improvements, but sometimes we don't get the proper solution. They are responding, but the ticket is open for weeks and weeks. For some issues, we don't get a satisfactory solution or the solution doesn't work."
"ForgeRock is an open source solution and is available to everyone but it is not freeware. If you need support, you need a subscription for ForgeRock. Many of its functionalities need to be built up with the help of a consultant."
"It should be a little bit easier to implement. It is user-friendly, but there is always scope for improvement."
"The product's support services in the French language are not free."
"The user-friendliness of Oracle Identity Governance can be improved compared to other products."
"t is too complex, has too many bugs, and is an immature product, even the best case, beta version."
"Simplify & add more functionality to Identity Cloud Service (IDCS)."
"One of the areas that need some improvement with Oracle specifically is the ease of implementation."
"I would like to see more segregation managed through Oracle Identity Manager."
"It's a complex solution, so it will take time in terms of deployment."
"The development and the administration side could be a lot more intuitive and easier to use than it currently is, in terms of functionality and what it tries to achieve as a Single Sign-On entity for an enterprise environment."
"Pricing for Oracle Identity Governance could be improved. The setup process for the tool could also be faster."
